Anything For Her

Chapter 451

Chapter 451

“Sophie, I don't mind falling sick if I can be your patient.”

“Stop spouting nonsense. All of us should stay healthy.”

Her purpose of becoming a doctor wasn't to treat them.

“Yeah, Ysabelle, what's up with you today?” Why is she talking about falling sick when everything is perfectly fine? Isn't it nice to live a healthy and carefree life?

Ysabelle realized she had slipped up. “Oh, I misspoke.”

“Touch wood! Nothing bad's going to happen.” Felix began feeling nervous. He liked Ysabelle and wanted her to be safe and healthy.

Ysabelle did as he instructed.

“Don't come looking for us doctors if you feel fine,” Arius said. “But as luck would have it, I'll be here if any of you gets sick, so don't worry.”

His credentials as a professor were certainly impressive.

“Honestly, Sophie, Mr. Tristan isn't getting any younger here. I thought both of you would tie the knot after your graduation, but finishing medical school will take at least five years. You wouldn't consider pursuing a Ph.D. like Arius, would you?”

Tristan would stay a bachelor for the next ten years if that were the case.

“You're too cruel toward Mr. Tristan.” Felix felt compelled to raise these concerns as Tristan's close friend.

Sophie shot Tristan a look. “Will you wait for me?”

He returned her gaze squarely and unflinchingly. “The rest of my life is yours. No matter how long you would take to complete your studies, I'll wait for you.”

“It's ten years, Mr. Tristan! Will you still be able to sire children by then?” That was a valid question.

Tristan's swept his gaze across Felix without a word, and the latter flinched timidly.

“How could you not think before speaking, Felix? Are you doubting Uncle Tristan? He's still young and virile. He will be able to wait twenty years, let alone ten.” Ysabelle came to Tristan's defense.

Sophie was a genius.

She would undoubtedly pursue a Ph.D., and she'd probably even achieve more than Arius.

Arius laughed. “Yes, Sophie is destined to be a doctor. Her accomplishments will surely surpass mine!” Her talents should never be held back by love.

Felix shrugged. Whatever.

He started to pity Tristan.

Charles chuckled. “Mr. Tristan, despite being the first among us to fall in love, you'll probably be the last to marry.”

Sean nodded his assent.

“However, waiting is worth it if you can be with the person you love,” he reflected poignantly.

“It's about time you let go, Sean. There is plenty of fish in the sea. Can't you look for another one?”

Why is he insisting on waiting for someone who will never return?

“You would never understand.”

There was no way he would settle for someone else after he had found the most important person in his life, for his heart already belonged to her.

“Sean is in love with someone?” Sophie was curious after hearing what Charles said since no one had mentioned anything about it.

“It's a one-sided love.”

“What?” Sean was normally aloof and reserved, so it was quite surprising to find out that he was experiencing unrequited love.

“That's right. It's indeed a one-sided love.”

Tristan would tell her anything she wished to know.

“But why are you suddenly so concerned about Sean?” he asked.

Sophie would only show mild interest in Sean out of the four of them.

“I just think he's an intriguing character.” I can't help being interested in him.

“Intriguing?”

“Don't read too much into it. It's just pure curiosity.”

Tristan wasn't overthinking, but he didn't like it when she paid too much attention to other people. That was what one would call “possessiveness.”

“I don't want to talk about this anymore.” Sean didn't feel like talking about his love life. At the same time, he had no idea how the woman he loved was doing.

He had promised never to disturb her life, and that was why he had never set foot in Anglandur for so many years.

However, he had always been waiting, believing that she would come back to him one day.

“Sean is quite a loyal man,” Sophie commented ruefully.

“Indeed he is.”

Truth be told, nothing really happened between him and that woman, but he just couldn't seem to forget about her.

“Frankly, Sean, I admire your devotion.” Ysabelle sighed. “I don't know when I'll meet my prince charming, but I hope he's as steadfast as you are.”

Felix couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Isn't her prince charming sitting right next to her? How could she not see that? She's basically blind.

They made their way to Nocturnal after dinner, and Sean had been imbibing more than usual that night.
